Sovereign Institute for Liberty & Justice seeks talented and ambitious young professionals from diverse fields – law, economics, diplomacy, technology, public policy and social sciences – eager to contribute to building a coherent, conservative and pro-liberty vision for Romania's future.
Credem că omul este o ființă rațională și capabilă, nu un subiect al tutelei instituționale. Același principiu îl aplicăm și în relația cu colaboratorii noștri: nu oferim un mediu de angajare standard și nici voluntariat clasic, ci un club al gânditorilor și al constructorilor de idei – un spațiu de excelență intelectuală, dezbatere serioasă și impact real.
What we're looking for
Young professionals (up to 35 years old) from fields such as law, economics, international relations, technology, public administration or political science, with:
- A bachelor's degree in a relevant field from an accredited institution
- Genuine intellectual curiosity and a passion for research and analysis
- Critical thinking, independent argumentation and intellectual honesty
- Professional integrity and adherence to the values of liberty, rule of law and individual responsibility
- A desire to contribute to projects with real impact, not just to tick a box on a CV
- Foreign language skills (English, French or German) — a significant advantage
Extensive prior experience is not required – we value potential, clarity of thought and determination. Experience in public institutions, regulated professions, the private sector or international organizations is a plus, but not a prerequisite.
What we offer
Training & Development
- Mentoring and working sessions with senior experts in law, economics, diplomacy and technology
- Participation in conferences, seminars and events in Romania and abroad
Impactful Practical Experience
- Direct involvement in drafting comparative studies, public policy analyses and policy papers
- Contributing to the drafting of legislative proposals, public positions and expert opinions
- Collaboration with decision-makers from the political, administrative and private sectors
Professional Networking
- Connections with senior experts in law, economics, diplomacy and technology
- Relations with European and international think tanks and research institutes with a conservative and pro-liberty orientation
- Concrete opportunities for international collaboration and visibility in expert networks
Meritocratic & Stimulating Environment
- Public recognition of valuable contributions
- The possibility of taking on responsibility for your own projects as your expertise grows
- An environment where ideas matter more than titles, and a well-constructed argument is the currency of exchange
